    Dear Sir, do you have this type of replacement battery for 15″ unibody MacBook Pro 5,4?

  2. Xendin says:

    Awesome! The battery in my late 08 MBP was weak to start with and has been getting worse. A great option to get some more life out of it!

    When are the 13″ models coming?

      Hi Bill…as soon as we can develop a solution that is worthy of the NewerTech NuPower brand name…listing specific eta a no win for users….but if I had to guess…I’d say before year end….hopefully…
